Chapter 920: Alliance?

Translator: Vesper

During this time, Xiao Qi Tian had been thinking whether all this was worth the sacrifice of his friendship with Qiao Tian Chang? No one could answer this but himself. Now that he knew how Qiao Tian Chang and Ning Meng Yao were from Mu Chen, he was happy but at the same time felt a bit sour for them.

If Mu Xue had not done what she did at that time, perhaps they could have still seen each other. Even if they couldn’t go back to what they were before, they could still have been friends.

It seemed that God was punishing him. He made Mu Xue believe and think all the things that were wrong, subsequently causing her to lose all the memories of them. And even his thought of maintaining a friendly relationship with Qiao Tian Chang through Mu Xue was no longer possible.

Now, Mu Xue could only meet Mu Chen and some other people. Even if she met Qiao Tian Chang or the others on the street, they might just be strangers. Let alone having the same friendly bond as before.

“He’s actually not angry. Anyway, we will have to leave soon.” Mu Chen thought for a while, then thought that he might tell Xiao Qi Tian about this matter.

Xiao Qi Tian looked startled. He stared at Mu Chen, with a somewhat stunned look, “Leave? Where are you going?”

Mu Chen smiled and shook his head indicating that he could not say.

Mu Xue suddenly became agitated, she looked at Mu Chen and asked with dissatisfaction, “Brother, is it that you don’t want me anymore?”

Mu Chen frowned slightly and with a helpless expression on his face, he said, “You’re a married woman. You’re married to your husband, Qi Tian, who is very kind to you. I am relieved to let him take care of you. We still have some other matters to attend to.”

Mu Xue felt that things were not as simple as he explained. She looked at Mu Chen suspiciously. “Brother, you’re not lying to me, right?” It wasn’t that Mu Xue did not believe Mu Chen, but his expression said otherwise.

Mu Chen nodded, “Of course not.”

Mu Xue was still very unhappy. She rolled her eyes and looked at Mu Chen brightly and said, “If that’s the case, then we shall follow you guys after my child is born, okay?”

“No.”

“Why? Just say that you don’t love me anymore.” Mu Xue looked at Mu Chen with dissatisfaction and mumbled.

Mu Chen was starting to have a headache talking to Mu Xue. Although he was coaxing patiently on the surface, he was already getting fed up with her.

Mu Xue’s motives were completely obvious to them. How could they not guess what she wanted to do?

“It’s getting late, we shall go and have some rest first. We’ve been traveling for so many days that we’re not really hungry.” Mu Chen said after managing to coax Mu Xue.

Situ Xuan also yawned and said sleepily, “Yeah, we’ll talk again tomorrow. I am also very tired.”

Watching Mu Chen and Situ Xuan leave, Xiao Qi Tian looked at Mu Xue helplessly. “Xue’er, what’s wrong with you?”

“Nothing, I’m just curious. Qi Tian, I’m also tired and going to rest.” Mu Xue said while grinning and holding onto Xiao Qi Tian’s arm. Perhaps only she knew what was going through her mind.

Xiao Qi Tian reached out and tapped Mu Xue’s nose and led her back to her room.

Mu Chen looked out from the window, he was frowning slightly. He suddenly felt that they shouldn’t have come here at all and instead just sent some gifts over.

“What are you thinking about, Chen?” Situ Xuan walked to Mu Chen, put her arms around his waist, and rested her head on his back.

Mu Chen turned to look at the woman in front of him with a loving smile on his face. He replied, “I was just thinking that maybe we shouldn’t have come at all.”

“Why would you say that?” Situ Xuan was puzzled.

“Didn’t you realize? I’m afraid my sister has reached an alliance with Xiao Qi Feng. If she continues to act this way, the consequence would be fatal.” Mu Chen sighed. He really did not want his sister to go down this road if it was possible at all.

Situ Xuan frowned, “You mean, Mu Xue intends to cooperate with Xiao Qi Feng to deal with Tong Bao Zhai? But she doesn’t even remember anything.”

This was what Mu Chen was worried about. “Precisely. Because she doesn’t remember anything, Xiao Qi Feng can easily influence her mind. Whatever he says, Mu Xue would believe.”
